520    " Beginning in the 1930s, Black Chicago experienced a 
       cultural renaissance that lasted into the 1950s and 
       rivaled the cultural outpouring in the Harlem Renaissance 
       of the 1920s. The contributors to this volume analyze this
       prolific period of African American creativity in music, 
       performance art, social science scholarship, and visual 
       and literary artistic expression. Unlike Harlem, Chicago 
       was an urban industrial center that gave a unique working 
       class and internationalist perspective to the cultural 
       work being done in Chicago. This collection's various 
       essays discuss the forces that distinguished the Black 
       Chicago Renaissance from the Harlem Renaissance and placed
       the development of black culture in a national and 
       international context. Among the topics discussed in this 
       volume are Chicago writers Gwendolyn Brooks and Richard 
       Wright, The Chicago Defender and Tivoli Theater, African 
       American music and visual arts, and the American Negro 
       Exposition of 1940. Contributors are Hilary Mac Austin, 
       David T. Bailey, Murry N. DePillars, Samuel A. Floyd Jr., 
       Erik S. Gellman, Jeffrey Helgeson, Darlene Clark Hine, 
       John McCluskey Jr., Christopher Robert Reed, Elizabeth 
       Schlabach, and Clovis E. Semmes"--|cProvided by publisher.
